* SUBSET 9801RSU *
***********************
This subset contains service recommendation information for TCP/IP
Version 2, Release 4 Modification 0 specific to the installation of
the RSU tape. Service recommendations for all product components
listed in this subset. Be sure to refer to the RSU subset that
matches the service level of the RSU tape that is to be installed.
PTF service listed in this subset should be applied after the RSU
tape has been loaded.
After the date that this subset is no longer supported, it is
recommended that the latest RSU and corresponding subset be use
when applying new levels of service.
If you are a SoftwareXcel customer and choose not to use the
latest RSU, you can search on HIPER and the applicable component
identifiers (ie COMPONENT ID and RELEASE) to determine the
recommended service that should be ordered.

3. 1999/05/21 Customers who use (or plan to use) the FTP and TFTPD
servers to access data that resides in CMS Byte File
System (BFS) directories on VM/ESA 2.1.0, or later, will
need to locally rebuild the SRVRFTP and TFTPD modules
using the VMSES/E VMFBLD command after this RSU is
applied. This is necessary so that the correct BPX
support for the BPX POSIX routines (OpenExtensions for
VM/ESA Callable Services) will be incorporated in these
modules.
2. 1998/01/05 Item Updated 1998/01/16
When RSU or corrective (COR) service is applied, please
NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
When the TCP2PROD command is invoked with a 'CONFIG'
operand (that is, TCPCONFIG, NFSCONFIG or KERBCONFIG),
existing configured files that reside on the TCPMAINT
591, 592 and 198 minidisks will be overlayed by their
non-configured sample counterparts. (Files for which
corresponding CATALOG entries have been 'bypassed' are
not affected.)
Thus, it's recommended that the TCP2PROD command be
invoked with a 'CONFIG' operand ONLY when the TCP/IP base
product, or one of its features is initially installed,
as indicated in sections 6.2.5.1, 6.4.4.1 and 6.5.4.1 or
6.6.4.1.
APAR PQ11677 (PTF UQ13189) is available to address
this problem.
1. 1997/10/01 Until the recent availability of RSU ordering and delivery
through the internet, RSU tapes were too large to be sent
electronically. Implementation of the internet FTP option
allows RSUs to be delivered to customers electronically
as envelopes.
Because electronic delivery was previously not available,
the RSU instructions do not contain information about
receipt of RSU service from an envelope.
On the step where the RSU tape is mounted (instead of
mounting and attaching the tape) follow the procedures
in the ServiceLink Users Guide to retrieve and decompact
the envelope file to your A-disk. (This is currently
done by using the VMDPACK module supplied by
ServiceLink.) The file name of the decompacted file
will be of the format RPTFnnnn. The file type will be
SERVLINK. You will need to enter the file name on the
VMFINS commands below.
Instead of issuing:
VMFINS INSTALL INFO (NOMEMO
issue:
VMFINS INSTALL INFO (NOMEMO ENV RPTFnnnn
where RPTFnnnn is the file name for the envelope
containing the RSU image.
NOTE: This ENV keyword and envelope file name (RPTFnnnn)
option will need to be included on ANY remaining VMFINS
INSTALL commands in the RSU instructions.
